Css grid polyfill
Guys! i need your help, recently a was hired as junior web dev, and in my company we work at rewriting old sites to modern manner, so, i want to use css grid for many sections of this website, cause it fits perfectly there, but my colleagues says, that 97% of support is not enough for them, cause in Russia there are a lot of IE users (idk where they got that info), but mb you know any polyfills for ie10-11 for grid?

if they claim to "rewriting old sites to modern manner," then they should not bother about ie anymore. CSS grid is around for about 5 year now..
Also, IE is officially dead since june this year

After 25+ years of helping people use and experience the web, Internet Explorer (IE) is officially retired and out of support as of today, June 15, 2022. To many millions of you, thank you for using Internet Explorer as your gateway to the internet.
@MarkBoots yeah, i know, and for me its has a pretty good support in all browsers, but they just don't care 😦
here's an article from 2017 about what you're looking for: https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2017/11/css-grid-supporting-browsers-without-grid/
@capt_uhu thank you, will check it now
Even IE supports grid, in a wierd and incomplete way, but support is here if you don't care too much about DX
all you have to do is place the element with grid lines instead of areas (can't remember if it supports
span or implicit grid, you'll have to check that out)
and as Mark put it... if your job is to rewrite old site in a modern manner there's no point in supporting older browser, you would be better of not doing anything.
